    Training course this morning was good but I'm beginning to think I'm a rain god. As I walked from the bus station to my office afterwards, the heavens opened and I got soaked. As soon as I got into the office, the sun came out.

    When I left the office to come home, the heavens opened again. No rain whilst I was on the bus. But, you guessed it, the minute I got off the bus, down it came again! And we've had thunder and lightning and it's really dark too. Miserable stuff!

    But, off to fly in the boudoir...

    Dashes in breathlessly; In my HHC I managed to:

    Load WM, De-gibble house (again, obviously not enough of you have the mischievious elves for Christmas and they are still here creating havoc) S&S the bathroom, toilets and kitchen, sweep and hoover all floors (S&S type hoovering, you know where you don't move any furniture) and answer call from school saying DS1 icky, can I pick him up at home time? Answer, sorry have to pick DS2 up first then will collect DS1 when collecting DD after her choir practice!

    Dashes back out again to school....:D

    PS- it's amazing what you can manage to do with a dishmop so you don't have to bend!

    Hello all you lovely FlyLadies,

    Sorry I've been awol for a few weeks. Had bad news that my appeal with work didn't go through and now umming and arghing whether to take it to tribunal. Been feeling quite low about it and have neglected my Flying duties :o

    Anyway, I don't like living in a messy flat so I'm starting afresh and I don't want to wait until Monday to start again, so I'm going for it today. Already stripped the bedding and plan to have a HHC at 4pm, so if anyone wants to join me to give me a kick up the bum, you are very welcome!

    Have missed all the gossip and people updates so will give a big :grouphug: to anyone who needs it

    Quick cup of tea then another HHC 4-4.30 anyone?

    The littles are (again) supposed to be tidying the playroom so that they can put a tree up. £1 says it isn't done before bedtime.

    Afternoon all

    Today's list done (all the bedrooms done together). I also did the bathroom and toilet today because I've got other stuff planned for tomorrow.

    Two loads of washing draped round indoors.

    Still catching up.
